I submitted my application for regular in December and still have not received any confirmation from Wake Forest with any instructions to make an account, I only received one from the Common App website. Should I be worried? What should I do?
@eancsw714 When in December did you submit your app? If it was early Dec or close to the time when admissions was closed for the holidays? It varies from school to school but if you submitted your application in the latter part of Dec, just be a bit more patient. If you received confirmation from comm app, you really should not be worried.
@eancsw714, here is a link to Wake Admission’s blog: http://fromtheforest.admissions.wfu.edu/2016/12/application-status-updates-for-fall-2017-applicants/ . Please note that Wake is just coming back from break and I am sure they are trying to catch up with all the applications (you should be getting a email soon). One thing I want you to remember: you will not be asked to “set up an account” like a lot of other colleges. Wake still uses the USPS and mails all their decisions to you (unless you are an international applicant). Thus, you will be receiving Wake’s decision about April 1 in the old mail box. I hope you get a black envelope.
I would give them a call in the next day or so. I know they are doing away with Windows to Wake, and they send admission decisions by mail, but my daughter applied regular decision and says she received two emails from admissions thanking her for applying and letting her know about the next steps within two days of submitting her application.
